I would go to the doctor, but that's me. Does he seem okay? Is he dizzy, complaining of a headache, crying non stop? The only reason I'd go to the doctor is to rule out concussion, but a call to the doctor may be enough. It depends on the extent of the injury, since I can't see it I can't say for sure. Sorry.
He stopped crying reasnobaly fast and he's sitting with me now with a ice on his head.
Does anyone know the number to that health line that's always advertised on TV I have no car so am stuck at home.
Sorry, I'm in Canada, so I don't know the number.
The main thing with a head injury is to make sure he doesn't have concussion. Here's a link listing the symptoms of concussion and some helpful tips on what to do and what to look out for.
Concussion
Thank you I thinks he all right thanks for the link 2
No problem, that's what we're here for. If you do notice any of the symptoms then get him to the doctor immediately. Let me know if you need anything else. :)
Take care.
I remember my daughter falling off a chair outise and smashing her fore head on the concrete floor the bump was huge and I just freaked out and rushed her to the doctors. Of course she was fine and no damage done thankfully the head is hard wearing x Just keep a close on him but I am sure he will be fine , the doctor recommended calpol in case of headache/pain due to the bump . Do not worry too much there will be many more bumps to follow x
I guess just me, on a head injurty I always took my kids to the urgent care center or their doctor
He is OK thanks everyone
